Prince George has just made his first official UK engagement

And he is as cute as ever.

Just look at his little face. 

Prince George has made his first official royal engagement today to visit the Royal International Air Tattoo.

Wearing navy shorts, a white t-shirt and little protective headphones he was brought around the grounds to take a look at some of the airplanes and helicopters which would be used by the RAF.

He was joined by his mum Kate Middleton and dad Prince William for his public appearance. At first, he was a bit overwhelmed by the whole scenario, but after a quick cuddle from his mum and some reassuring words he began to enjoy the visit.

 

 

Then came time to sit in some of the planes and helicopters, an experience which seemed to be the most exciting for him. Most little boys would be in their element given that kind of opportunity and that’s exactly how Prince George looked.

According to Hello Magazine, he was overawed by the planes and after hopping into the cockpit of the RAF Aerobatic Team’s Red Arrow Hawks he said to his mum Kate, “Mummy, can I fly the Red Arrow now?” to which she answered, “Not right now.”

 

Looks like he could be following in his dad’s footsteps as a helicopter pilot.

 

This outing marks his first official UK engagement as part of the royal family. He had previously made his first public engagement in April 2014, when the family were visiting Australia and New Zealand, to attend a play date in his honour.
